Brazobán and Reed Garrett lead the Mets with 44 games apiece. With 51.2 innings to his name, he leads the bullpen and has arguably been overused. In Triple-A, the consequences of using him once or twice a week are minimal, whereas doing so in the bigs would have cascading issues for the rest of the 'pen.

Elias Díaz drives in Jose Iglesias with walk-off single; five-run fifth inning brought Padres back from four runs down
Fernando Tatís Jr. made a leaping catch at the wall to rob a home run from the New York Mets, delivering a highlight-reel moment for the San Diego Padres.
That’s not even all of it: Huascar Brazoban’s misplay allowed the Padres to score the tying run. Padres starter Dylan Cease was whacked in the head by a one-hopper and stayed in the game. He wasn’t even the only pitcher to eat grass Monday.
Right-hander Stephen Kolek was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Tuesday, clearing the way for right-hander Ryan Bergert to start for the Padres against the New York Mets. First pitch is at 6:40 p.m. on Padres.TV. Kolek allowed five runs in 11⅔ innings in two starts on the road trip. He is being replaced in the rotation by Bergert. At least for now.
